Kakak is leaving soon :(
There is a lot of mix feeling in me right now. I guess it is because I am going to be alone, with 3 kids to manage ever since the boys were born. Although my mum will come up to stay with us during that few weeks, I still have to take over most of the simple chores. Couldn’t possibly ask my mum to clean or cook right?
Cleaning would be easy as part time helper is easily available now. But even without touching on the house chores, just clearing away the mess the boys make, being there to prevent or helping them to solve their fighting problem that might outburst any single second, is enough to take me away from this computer 24 hours a day. I reckon I even be too tired to open this laptop by the time the kids fall asleep.
But I am really excited, waiting for this moment to arrive. I am going to see, if we can really do without having a live in maid in our crazy house. I am sure we can, but my only concern is that I’ll have less time online when there is no one to stand by with the boys.
all the best.. when you think you can, you be able to make it… gambateh.. anything not right, you may always rant here, and here we are to hear from you..
You sure can handle that. Good luck to you.
Hi, I also have 3 kids, which 2 & 3 are twins. Dun worry, when I return my kakak home also I felt worry like u but when times come u ll know how to handle.
Am sure you can handle like a pro. All mother will knows what to do when the times come. We, mother are amazing, aren’t we ? hehe
Take it one step at a time..and try out ur magic cooker, and share recipes. I m thinking to get one. BUt takut become elephant only…
Have positive mind…WILL DO!! I hope I can be your inspiration.
by the way..if not time to sit in front of pc..get your hub to buy you a smartphone..put in the pocket everywhere you go. Still can rant and fb. haha..that’s how I keep my sanity
Sigh…maid issue..I am in the dilemma too, thinking should I get a replacement or not when mine leaving end of the year.
I am just worried about my sanity when I have to face the children 24/7 without any breather. Anyway, it’s good that ur mother will be here during that few weeks. At least there are someone to lend a helping hand when needed.
Good luck to you!
you can do it… if Elaine can, you also can….
Sigh! My parents’ one left in late February after Chinese New Year - can’t find a good one since. Stressful without a helper to help take care of my old bedridden mum. I hope we can find one soon…
Nevertheless it ‘d be hard without the maid, but look at the bright side, you can start to hv more privacy and heartache created by the maid.
p/s: Re Eyuzu, I actually booked the table right after I bought the vouchers. Last Sat whn we were there, there were many ppl who book later were seated outside the restaurant, I reckon u should confirm with the staff where u’ll be seated on the dining day(outside is quite stuffy though).
i know it’s lame to just tell u you can do it…coz it definitely going to be tough adjusting at the beginning! hopefully u can control yrself dealing with the boys during this time. being mentally prepare does help but overtime, things shd be OK once routine sets in. if not ok, worst is to get replacement only mah…hehe
good luck chinnee
Who knows, maybe the children will be very guai when kakak is not around, won’t need u to do so much cleaning n stuff.
don’t worry k! with all the happenings at home, time will fly by and kak kak will be home soon
Good luck CN - I know it’s not going to be easy but at least you’ll have your mum with you.
